You know what happens when you go snowboarding, but you don’t exercise regularly? You get intensely sore. I was able to get a discount with my student ID for the second time, woohoo!! The first time was when I watched Ocean’s Eleven. Friday’s are college days and tickets are really cheap. The weather was pretty…

9 pages, and it’s still too long with too much left unsaid. It reads like an undergraduate paper. Oh well, it is finished. I didn’t get a chance to post this up yet, but here goes. I watched Ocean’s Eleven on New Year’s Day. Now that’s a GREAT movie. I guess I only feel that…

I need some ideas. Any thoughts on… 1. How a child develops gender identity and gender role behaviors? 2. Psychosocial and cognitive issues with the elderly and what we can do to insure optimal development during late adulthood? 3. How the concept of stages (qualitative change) is useful in understanding development in childhood, adolescence, and…

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! With a new year, comes new resolutions. I never was really into making resolutions for myself. Shouldn’t we change ourselves to be better people no matter the time of year? Maybe this is the time of year when people evaluate their lives. It’s a bit sad that they don’t do that during…

Wow, I think this is the longest it’s been since I last posted. Snowboarding was fun, but it could have been better if the weather had cooperated. It was snowing most of the time we were there so the snow was awesome, but we were all drenched by the end of the day. My car…

Did you know that in China, people get the day after the holiday off from work, not the holiday itself? That’s pretty smart, because you get to recover from the festivities. I just went to go exchange a set of snow chains. I told the lady that I had bought the chains a while back,…

Ahh, the family’s here. It’s been about 15 minutes since I’ve last eaten. I think it’s time to eat again. Oh man…that’s what it’s like for us during the holidays. I can’t imagine holidays without food. Here are my answers to the friday five. I know it’s not Friday, but it sure feels like it.…

Merry Christmas!!! I just got back from the candlelight service and cable car caroling (or more like cable car yelling). We drove around the city yelling Merry Christmas to people. I haven’t had that much fun in a while, seeing that all I’ve been doing is writing papers. We looked like a bunch of drunkards.…

Thanks all for voting. The final count is in. According to the poll, I should go see Lord of the Rings. Anthony told me that the movie itself is not that great, but the effects are pretty good. Let me see if I even have time to watch a movie with Christmas just around the…

I love getting these pictures around this time of year. This is a picture of Cal and Mimi’s son, Caleb. Isn’t he the cutest? People from our friday night fellowship (plus a few, ok, several, visitors) came over last night for dinner . I made 2 prime ribs and a large rack of pork ribs.…

Look at my Christmas present (some animated gif)! It’s supposed to change little by little, and then on Christmas, it’s supposed to reveal what’s inside. I hope it’s appropriate. Hahaha…

Where in the world is Osama Bin Laden? I can’t wait until I’m finished with the papers. Mucho thanks to Raymond for attempting to solve my cgi problems and trying to get the comments to work, even though the solution has yet to be discovered. I spent way too much time on that when I…

Guess what we’re having for dinner tonight? FRESH lobster! And you know what fresh means? It means live. It means you have to prepare them yourself while they’re still moving. When you bring them home and put them in the sink, they’re still moving. THEY’RE MOVING! My aunt tried to prepare the lobsters but she…

Today, I had my first white elephant gift exchange of the season with the high schoolers. I think some of the guys found it awkward due to all the “girly” gifts. (There are only 2 guys in the group–only 1 when Dustin’s at school, poor Matt). The approximate cost of the gift was $5, so…

“In this day when God is often referred to as ‘It’ or ‘She’ or ‘Goddess’ for the sake of leveling, I must say, I can’t recall Satan ever being referred to as ‘She’.” That’s a thought for those who are so intent on being ‘PC’.

Another day of work. There is no such thing as relaxing during the weekend as a student. I love the following quote: There are only 2 kinds of people in the world – those who wake up in the morning and say, “Good morning, Lord,” and those who wake up in the morning and say,…

Finished the draft of one paper, with many more left. Such is the life of the student: writing papers on a Friday night. We just had our last “current issues” class meeting yesterday. During the break (it’s a 3 hour class), the professor asked if anyone wanted a burrito. She was buying that day. Everyone…

I was stuck in the rat race of commuters today, attempting to drive home on the freeways when I decided to take the side streets to get on the bridge. In the lane next to mine, was one car, and in front of me, was a pickup truck with a cab top. The light was…
